I've been using Maybelline mousse stuff. It's finally run out.
I've got about a tenner to spend on a new one ( pref from superdrug).
Any recommendations please?..
My skin is slightly dry ( flaky at the nose)
A little sensitive
I'm (dyed) blonde with mousey eyebrows and blue/grey/greeny eyes.
I have a few thread veins that I need covering. .. but I like my freckles so don't want too much coverage.

I'd love the dewy flawless look that I seem to see on others but I'm guessing it's costing them mega bucks!

Saving up isn't an option.. if I don't the buy it today I'll have to spend the money on the kids half term crap 😂

Please help?

I'm also buying a hot cloth cleanser. The superdrug vit e one.

Oh no Retainer! I've used a primer and so far so good. It's a little pale but not too bad. Do you use primer?
Weirdly it stung going on?! I'm happy so far though and I can't afford anymore

If it starts to go chalky I'll do as you've said though. Good idea as I find powder sits in my nose creases and looks very dry!

You should be fine then,mine went chalky straight away-bit strange that it stung though. I didn't use primer.

Yeah it should be! Stayed put all day so I'm impressed!
My skin is a bit sensitve so I'm not too worried about the stinging.
Thanks again all.
